Haywire
Reading the lyrics in the liner notes of Frog Holler's fourth full-length disc is nearly as rewarding as listening to the album itself, Haywire. Songwriter and vocalist Darren Schlappich is a real-deal storyteller, mixing everyday language and creative phrasing to produce vivid, exciting images that make you smile, tug on your heart, offer hard-earned wisdom - or do all three.
Sweet melodies, rock crunch, and varied instrumentation, including lap steel and banjo, merge with Schlappich's infectiously lazy drawl to make songs you can't get out of your head. Guitarist John Kilgore and steel guitarist Todd Bartolo shine on the distortion-friendly rave-up One Last Time. Terms and Conditions is a bluegrassy number, but with a Frog Holler spin that makes it accessible even if you never heard of Flatt & Scruggs. All this band has to offer is talent, great songs, and consistency. ~ Andy Turner No Depression
